Extra points opportunity at Boots! (plus Cashback!) Hurry!!!

here's how to get 7960 points for spending £80 effectively you are only paying 40p! but if you go via quidco.com you get 4.5 % cashback so in the end you make £4!!! plus get £79.60 back in points!

just now boots has ruby and mile items at buy 2 get 500 points they also have a promotion if you buy £25 of brand goods you get 500 points too.

So if you bought a total of 16 ruby and mille items at £5 (there was some at £4.50 and £2 but sold out!)

you would get 7960 points

thats 960 for triple points
4000 (buy 2 get 500 points)
1500 (500 x 3 spend £25)
and add the 1500 points code listed on this site!)

HURRY!

    Trying this on line at mom but it is only rewarding me 4960 pts for buying 16 items totalling £80. Looks like they are only giving the 500 pts reward twice.

    Any suggestions?

    There's only 4 of the £5 items left in stock - next cheapest is £8 which means you end up having to pay some cash out.

    I believe you can only use this code once. So if you used it a week ago in the triple points bonanza, it will not now work for you.

    Then just reregister with a different email address and use it again!

    thx for the clarification. I used it twice last week so was hoping it would still be working. Any other codes around?

    Nice find, I have no use for that Ruby and Millie stuff and they don't have much of a resale value on eBay so I'm gonna pass on this one :cool:

    It's great fun watching the points stack up though!

    Too right :D

    Just out of interest ...

    Are points you get for spending online always available to use against any purchase? Or do you have to physically go into Boots and redeem/buy something to update the card??

    Hi Sofa
    The points become available 5-7 days from despatch of your order.
    You do have to go instore and put your card in the Advantage machine which will then give you a printout of your added points, they are then available to spend.
